A chillingly funny play that freeze-frames a generation negotiating intimacy and independence in the twenty-first century. Meeting the demands of twenty-first-century life is as impossible as herding cats for Justine, Michael and Saddo. Justine has an infuriating new boss; Michael chats to strangers for a living; Saddo is one of them. All three are living a comic fiction in an attempt to avoid the facts. And now Christmas is coming... ready or not. Lucinda Coxon's play Herding Cats was first staged at the Ustinov Theatre, Bath, in 2010.
